Okie random but I just imagined how Ash must be terrified of camera's click sounds bcs of his childhood trauma but like Eiji wants to photograph him all day so he disables skeuomorph on his phone to secretly take Ash's pics. Ofc Ash knows & he chooses to act like he doesn't but Eiji knows he's acting but stays quiet anyway
Pakorn vs Puen
Nooooo thatβs so cute πππππππ
Do yβall realize that βSOTUSβ and βYuri on Iceβ were airing at the same time in 2016? Two legendary series that had seismic impacts on the world just casually airing in their respective countries simultaneously.
I just think thatβs neat.
It is a known fact that Vegas wears a million masks & has lost himself in the process. These could be one of the two reasons he visits a temple despite being a ruthless criminal.
Guilt : As his human side surfaces in ep 11, it now seems believeable that Vegas indeed feels a tinge of guilt for any of these reasons :
Taking away innocent lives
Manipulating people to fall in love with him only to kill them later (they could be the only form of affectionate touch he gets except from Macau)
Having to raise Macau, the only family he loves & trusts, in a toxic environment
Vegas probably wakes up every morning only to fulfil his duties as a son & heir without any self driven motivation. (He doesn't even seem to know himself as Vegas without the Theerapanyakul) He is probably clinging to this mafia life just because there is no alternative. Also there's a need to shield Macau from their toxic father.
Perhaps he goes gives offerings to the temple to beg forgiveness for the sins he's obliged to commit. He could've felt guilty for failing to protect Macau or constantly disappointing his father by always being the second best after Kinn. He might also believe he is paying for the sins of his past lives. Or fear the sins of this life shall carry on to the next.
Which leads me the second possible reason - Lack of purpose.
People commonly turn to spirituality to find answers for questions like - Who am I? What is the purpose of life? Questions which Vegas definitely seems inclined to find answers for. Because he feels unwanted. Unloved. Unworthy. And then in ep 7, he watches Pete.
Pete, who happens to be passing by, stops & bows when he notices a shrine. Earlier in the ep we see Pete asking Big to stop trashing a rival gang member afraid it would lead to his death. This shows Pete's compassionate side despite being in a job that demands you to be violent & merciless. (Yes they needed him to live to make him talk but he neither seemed to have bled nor fainted. We only see Big hitting him only a couple of times prior) Vegas must have considered if faith in God is what keeps a person like Pete from crumbling. So decides to give God a chance.
But someone makes him realize he wants something from life. Which for once, doesn't have to do with his family. Pete.
He might have tried talking to deal with the awkwardness of being caught while spying. But this sentence means a lot to Vegas who has probably never experienced platonic love. No one had ever asked him about his likes or dislikes without intending to use it against him. And now all he wants is someone to whom he can ask about interests & be asked back . So he answers.
However, the peace may not be from just hearing the sermon, but from hearing it alongside Pete. Vegas has never been treated like a commoner before. The absence of hierarchy in this conversation oddly liberates him. And for the first time, he admits to having desires; in his own way.
By next life he could have meant "In a life where we are not us". He wished Pete was his friend in a world where he could afford to have one. A life where he was not his father's son or the minor family's heir. An alternative universe where Pete was not one of his rival's fiercely loyal head bodyguard. Where Vegas didn't have to constantly switch personalities & Pete was still his non-judgemental self.
For the first time Vegas could sense a craving for a human relationship that didn't have to be bound by money, blood or blackmail. And he readily did a ritual if it meant something to his newfound desire.
But the type of love he craves can be found in any relationship. Considering his upbringing, he seems to believe blood or romantic relationships are utilitarian. Which only leaves friendships. A luxury he never had as a mafia prince.
Now to ruin the mood we all know what happens nextπ Pete is fucking attractive so Vegas couldn't hold back & needed an excuse to touch him I guess π€£π€£
However it is worth noting that humans have multiple layers to their personalities. Moreover humans do tend to look for what they lack in their partners. So it's only normal for Vegas to find that comforting friend in Pete.
PS forgive me if I'm wrong this is my first time posting my own theory/interpretation ππ π
Idk what to call it but Karasuno is likened to crows & 'kage' (ΰ²ΰ²Ύΰ²ΰ³) in kannada language means crow... Their setter's name is literally 'Kage'yama.
